Join the dreaded knights who say “Ni!” and the French taunter at Monty Python’s Spamalot. The “lovingly ripped off” musical is based on the 1975 film Monty Python and the Holy Grail, which parodies the legend of King Arthur and inspired this Tony Award–winning Broadway musical. The knights’ journey will have long-time fans and newbies alike singing along to ditties such as “I’m Not Dead Yet” and fan-favourite “Always Look on the Bright Side of Life.” Catch all the silliness at The Stanley, to Jun. 29.
